Join State Theatre New Jersey for an intimate celebration of the transformative power of live performance at A Night In Lights Annual Benefit Gala on Saturday, May 30, 2026 from 4:30-7pm. Chaired by Johnson & Johnson alumnae Eileen Harkins and Alma Scott, A Night In Lights raises essential support for State Theatre’s impactful education and community engagement programs.
A Night In Lights will feature a robust cocktail hour, a generous tasting menu of small plates, delicious desserts, and live entertainment. This year's event will also feature:
A Silent Auction filled with exclusive experiences near and far,
Our inaugural Spotlight Awards recognizing New Jersey artists and leaders who expand access to the arts to those who need it most, and
Our annual Mission Drive raising critical funding to strengthen the programs at the heart of our mission.
Immediately following our A Night In Lights Annual Benefit Gala, continue the Good Vibrations with the option to join us at The Beach Boys concert taking place on State Theatre New Jersey's stage. Celebrate a great cause and cap off an unforgettable evening supporting STNJ's education and community engagement programs.
Proceeds from STNJ's Annual Benefit directly support our mission to eliminate barriers and ensure that the live performance is accessible to all. Your participation helps us provide transformative arts education programs, affordable ticketing initiatives, and community outreach efforts that bring the joy of live entertainment to everyone, regardless of their circumstances.
Please RSVP by May 20, 2026.
